The World represents completeness, wholeness, reaching a point where you have achieved all that you desired, reaching the pinnacle of success.  It represents completeness, wholeness, and having fully integrated all aspects of your personality and life.

This card was genuinely perfect today.  It was one of those days that was fairly self-contained and just left me feeling very happy.  Nothing special happened; no major ups or downs.  I puttered around the house a bit, walked into the post office and spent the night hanging out with the mom-in-law. 

I spent a bit of time pondering the message The World was giving to me.  It was reversed which I didn't feel was a negative at all.  I think it was reinforcing the fact that everything I needed to make today spectacular is already within my grasp. 

Of course on another level it could be a warning.  I have been fairly active on Facebook lately.  And it has provided me with a wonderful opportunity to catch up with some dear friends with whom I lost contact.  I love it but I'm starting to realize that there are things I post on there that I don't want the world to know.  I don't mind it being public but I don't necessarily need everyone I know to see it.  It has become apparent to me over the last few weeks that I need to be a bit more selective about who I accept as a "friend" on Facebook.

I get quite a few requests from people I don't know.  As a rule I won't add someone as a friend unless I know him or her in real life.  I have no need to have hundreds of "friends" on Facebook that I don't know.  At the same time there are people I do know who I've accepted as a friend on Facebook and now I'm wondering if that was such a good idea.  At one point I added a number of co-workers as friends.  Then one day one of them made some comment about my status updates and I realized that I don't want these people knowing how I'm feeling every day.  I don't know them like that and I don't want too.  So I've deleted them.  If I wouldn't hang out with them in the real world then I certainly don't need to hang out with them in cyberspace.  I'm learning the benefits of selective reduction.

So I guess I received a two fold lesson/gift from The World reversed's message - don't look outside myself for completeness and wholeness and don't bring outside influences into my life unless I'm sure I want them integrated.
